Perrin CVT Transmission Mount Support 2015-2025 WRX / 2014-2025 Forester / 2020-2025 Outback / 2020-2025 Legacy / 2019-2025 Ascent / 2013-2025 Crosstrek / 2008-2025 Impreza | 6061-T6 Aluminum | Drivetrain Mount Support
Overview
The Perrin CVT Transmission Mount Support is designed specifically for Subaru vehicles equipped with CVT transmissions, including WRX, Forester, Outback, Legacy, Ascent, Crosstrek, and Impreza models spanning 2008 through 2025. This mount support addresses the inherent softness of the OEM transmission mount, which prioritizes noise reduction but allows excessive drivetrain movement. By filling the gap between the transmission and chassis, the Perrin mount support significantly reduces slop and movement during acceleration, deceleration, and cornering.
Engineered from high-quality 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with a durable black anodize coating, this mount support offers a precise and rigid connection that enhances the driving experience. Perrin’s design philosophy focuses on balancing durability with performance, providing Subaru enthusiasts a reliable upgrade that improves drivetrain feel without compromising longevity. The mount support’s construction and finish ensure resistance to corrosion and wear, making it a long-lasting addition to your vehicle.
For Subaru owners, this transmission mount support delivers tangible benefits such as improved throttle response, more accurate manual shifting feel, and reduced drivetrain slop. These improvements translate into better power transfer to the wheels, resulting in more confident launches and sharper vehicle control during spirited driving or motorsport activities like drag racing and autocross. While the mount support may introduce some additional noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), many drivers appreciate the enhanced connection and feedback it provides.
